Dear Friends and Family! This is my Christmas Card & Gift to all of my dear friends, colleagues, mentors, and students! Please enjoy this assortment of Christmas music I have sung this season. You should be able to just hit play/and the play list can play on the background in your home/computer/wherever you are, on this beautiful Christmas Eve/Day! And here is a private link, that can be shared with anyone who has the link...so feel free to share, but know that none of it is 'professional quality' recording. LINK: https://soundcloud.com/sparrow-coloratura/sets/christmas-gift-rachel-sparrow/s-phxpU Most of these (with the exception of 'He Never Said a Mumblin' Word,'(-from Carnegie Hall Debut) and 'Rejoice Greatly') were very casually recorded at a Holiday Party I sang at a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy their laid back nature...and imagine I am singing at YOUR holiday party. Indeed I wish I was with all of my family and friends on this wonderful day! MERRY CHRISTMAS! Love, - Rachel-

There's no shortage of places to sing this Holiday Season! With 7 concerts last week and 6 concerts this week... I have had hardly any time at all to breathe--but somehow, things always seem to work out! I am very much looking forward to singing in the Music of the Baroque Concerts this weekend! The Holiday Brass and Choral Concert is simply going to be STUNNING! And it will also be broadcast on WFMT. Buy your tickets now! You can purchase $25 tickets for this Thursday night and Friday night concerts only, this week, Simply call the Music of the Baroque Box Office at 312-551-1414, and tell them you would like to buy ____ tickets with Rachel Sparrow's Chorus discount. Box Office closes at 5 pm (but you can leave message and they will call you back) Here's 3 minutes worth of "My Fair Lady" from a recent audition submission. Enjoy! I'm very excited to offer these private in-home concerts to all of my friends here on the North Shore of Chicago (and beyond) in order to help raise funds for my first concert tour and hopefully also my first recording! Here is the very beginning of my efforts! Spread the word, we are booking January Concerts now!
